Philly wears green at home but they wear white this game just to force the Cowboys to wear blue

They are stuck in the mystique of the Landry years, when that was a technique used by Vermeil who thought that the blue uniforms brought Dallas bad luck....

The history goes back to the 60 s now a lifetime ago.
Browns, Cards when they were good would make the boys wear the blues.
Then there is SB V where the NFL made the home team wear dark and we lost to the Colts.
I really think the jinx was broke with
a 28-0 beat down of the Rams in LA.
That was the NFC championship game that sent the Cowboys to the second meeting with the Steelers SB XIII.

I'm superstitious. I don't like it when the Cowboys wear their dark blue uniforms. Didn't they choose to do that during the Thanksgiving Day game last year? The one where they got crushed by Philadelphia? I think Philly is smart to force us to wear these unlucky uniforms. Don't like it at all.

Even though there is absolutely no correlation between the outcome of the game, and what color jerseys they wear.

The Cowboys' blue uniform jinx is the only superstition I have. But I'm a strong believer in it. So are other teams. Philadelphia is switching their normal home uniform from green to white tomorrow to force the Cowboys to wear blue. I'm not alone apparently.

I also think the white uniforms look better. Best in professional sports in my opinion.

Maybe Chip Kelly just wants them to wear white? You ever think of that? I seriously doubt he is making us wear blue because of a silly superstition from 100 years ago.

I may be wrong but don't Philly wear white on home openers?

They wore white last year against the Jags and i do remember a game against the Ravens a couple of yrs back in their home opener and they wore white.

I personally think that they wear the whites due to the possible heat that could still be present since they choose the colors before the season starts.

I just hope the Cowboys win. One thing I do know is they played their worst game of the season wearing blue against Philadelphia last year. I don't want a repeat of that.

We also wore blue several other times, and won.

Not sure which part about these uniforms I like better -- the jersey or the pants

These blues are my second favorite jerseys. My favorite ones are the blues that they wore in the early 90s with the silver numbers and twin stripes on the sleeves.
